VETERINARY SMOKE-INJECTOR.

SPECIFICATION forming part Of Lettel' Patent N0. 570,332, dated OCtObel 27, 1896..

Application filed August 27, 1895. Serial No. 560,693- (NO model.)

.To all whom z5 may con/cern.-

Be it known that we, THOMAS H. FENDER- eAs'r` and BERNARD I-I. BUETER, of Louisville, in the county of J eiferson and State of Kentucky, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Veterinary Injectors; and we do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use it, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form part of this specification.

Our invention relates to improvements in veterinary injectors, and is intended for use in injecting narcotics or liquids into diseased animals.

The object of our invention is to provide an improved veterinary injector so constructed that it may be charged with tobacco and the smoke injected into the animal, or it may be charged with liquids of any kind and,throu gh the medium of the tube, injected into the animal as desired.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a perspective view of an injector which embodies our invention. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of the same. Fig. 3 is a detached view of the short tube.

A indicates the body of the injector, having a detachable cap 0r cover B, which has at its upper end a hollow projection C. Projecting laterallyn from this projection C is a short tube D, which receives a rubber tube E, connected with an air compressor or forcer F. This cap ts upon the end of the body of the injector A and is easily and readily removed therefrom, as will be clearly understood.

Communicating with the bottom of the injector is a second longer tube G, to which a long rubber tube Il is connected, the opposite end of the tube II having an injectingpoint I of any desired construction.

The body of the injector has a downwardlyprojecting stem portion J with an enlarged base J which will enable it to be set upon any desired object, if preferred. This stem portion is made hollow for the reception of a handle K when the injector has become ently.

The handle is preferably attached to the injector by means of a chain L, so that it cannot be detached therefrom and is always at hand to be used when necessary.

At one side of the injector, near its upper end, is a parallel-extending tlat arm M, forming a hook, by means of which the injector can be suspended by hooking in the vest or other pocket and be operated.

The upper end of the injector is shown tapering,so that the cap in being placed thereon will fit tightly and make practically an air-tight joint, so that when air is forced into the body of the injector by means of the airforcer it will not escape, except at the lower end through the tube, which is in communication therewith.

In operation the body of the injector is charged with tobacco and lighted, the tube N (shown in separate view, Fig. 3) is connected with the tube at the lower end of the injector, and the tobacco is started to burning by smoking, as an ordinary pipe. Vhen thoroughly under way, the short tube is detached and the long tube attached and the cap placed upon the body of the injector, and by the operation of the air-forcer the smoke is forced or injected into the animal as desired.

The device becoming heated the wooden handle is used for the purpose of preventing the operator any inconvenience which would otherwise occur.

The injector may be charged with liquid by removing the cap, as will be readily understood, and the liquid also injected into the animal when required.

From the above description it will be seen that we have produced a very simple and cheap injector especially adapted for injecting narcotics or liquids into diseased animals.

Having thus described our invention, what we claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

An injector consisting of an elongated body portion as A, with a detachable cap as B, for the purpose described, an inlet-pipe to said cap, and an outlet-pipe at the lower end of IOO the body portion, and a stem pol-tion J having a base Ls J adapted to support JLhe de- Vice, and a Socket-opening in the stem J beloT and out. of Communication Wit/h lhe bottom of the 1eeeptae1e,and L detachable handle as K Connected with the stem, substantially as described.

In testimony whereof we Lfx oul1 signatures in presence of two Witnesses.
